Does your iphone have to be connected to the net?
Does your iphone have to be connected to the internet to use the find my iphone app?
Will you be unable to find it if not connected?
Yes, it needs to be connected with Wi-Fi or cellular connection. The phone also needs to be turned on.
If it is off or offline, it will execute your command once it's online again.
Also please note that you won't be able to locate the phone once you choose the wipe command.
It does not have to be connected to the internet to erase or lock the device but it does have to be connected to locate it on the map
How the heck do you expect to be able to know its location if its not connected to the net?
- Wi-Fi Connected - but no internet on devices connected? Hi, The Problem is - i set up a wireless network today for my Iphone 5 and my blackberry, from my main desktop at home, and all went well and Both are connected to it, as well as my laptop. But now whenever i try using the internet on these devices ( iphone etc ) it does not work, although the main desktops internet is working… Can anyone help me? I'm using WINDOWS 7.
- When you sync your iphone to your computer does it copy everything onto your pc? I have broke my iphone to the point where it is un repairable, i only sync my iphone the other day to my pc does this mean everything what was on my iphone was copied and saved to it? Or have i lost everything?
- What does it mean when your internet says connected with limited access? I have a windows vista that's 2008. My house internet went down yesterday so I had to take the plug out of the internet and plug it back in after 10 minutes. Then everything worked but today my laptop says connected with limited access but my iPad internet and iPhone works fine. So what to do? I tried everything on google but it didn't work. My sister said its like something I downloaded but I didn't download anything since like 2 weeks. So what to do?
- Is your data connected to your iTunes? So I have a iPod touch now (4th gen) and I want to get a iPhone 5c soon for my birthday. I don't want to get a iCloud thing because that is too much work for me and I don't really need it. So can I sync my pictures and notes and apps and music (which obviously is already on my iTunes) to my iTunes, and them when I get my iPhone, come home and sync it to that iTunes account? If so, can I easily sync everything to iTunes?
